The council of the United Counties of Prescott and Russell is moving towards a two-year term for the president. A resolution calls for a report and a draft regulation to this effect as early as 2026. The proposal, launched by Mayor Mike Tarnowski, aims for more stability, citing the experience of Normand Riopel who has ensured two consecutive years. Ten other counties already have a two-year term. The draft regulation will be presented on 26 November and must be adopted before the end of the year.
